ISIS jihadists publicly executed 13 teenage boys for watching a soccer match.

The young fans were watching an Asian Cup match between Iraq and Jordan on TV last week when they were caught by the militants in the Iraqi city of Mosul, which the Islamic State controls, the Daily Mail reported.

Raqqa Is Being Slaughtered Silently, an activist group that exposes ISIS atrocities, reported that the teens were executed by a firing squad.

“The bodies remained lying in the open and their parents were unable to withdraw them for fear of murder by terrorist organisation,” the group posted on its website.

The boys were slaughtered because they were said to be violating Sharia laws by watching the game.

If the Western European media is smart enough to latch on to this story it will mark the end of ISIS recruitment.

And I thought that watching soccer was in itself the worst possible punishment. Leave it up to ISIS to add their own touch.

The Prophet warned all about the evils of watching sports on what would be called TV. It’s there in the book. Somewhere. In the original Arabic.

I read the headline and thought, “You really cannot make this up.”

Islam is the most evil garbage to ever land on this planet.

“ISIS jihadists publicly executed 13 teenage boys for watching a soccer match.”

Finally! Something we can all agree on!

Yeah, it’s not really a joking matter.

The boys were slaughtered because they were said to be violating Sharia laws by watching the game.

Sharia law which England and France allows to exist by having "Sharia zones" in their own country. And "Sharia", if I'm not mistaken, pertains to Islam. But it's not Islam according to Obama.

They executed the tv, the store owner who sold it, and the construction workers that build the building the store was in.

This may seem factitious but I don’t mean it that way. ISIS and the Taliban in particular but really in a more general way all Muslims seem to be terrified at a basic level that someone, somewhere, is having fun.

Sort of like a lot of our own liberals here in America.

This would not of happened if Iraq would just help Muslims assimilate into their society.

Serious question: So what was the crime here? Watching tv, or watching soccer on tv?

That’s why Liberals love Islam so much, they both can stand to see people happy.
